2018 HONDA CR-V Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL IN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT BURNING, WHICH CAUSED FUEL TO SEEP DOWN TO THE OIL. THE DEALER (TOM SCOTT HONDA, 603 11TH AVE N., NAMPA, ID 83687) STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST UNTIL A RECALL FOR THE FAILURE WAS ISSUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 400.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH AT NIGHT, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING FAILED TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED FOR THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TO ILLUMINATE AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTOFAIR HONDA (200 KELLER ST, MANCHESTER, NH 03103, (603) 471-3990) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED UNLESS THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE AT THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

MY CR-V 2018 DOESN'T RUN SMOOTH AND THE ENGINE IS NOISEY BUT THE BIG PROBLEM HAPPENED 12/08/18 WHEN I PARKED THE CAR TO UNLOAD GROCERIES WHEN ONE HOUR LATER I WENT TO START IT THE CABIN FILLED WITH THE STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. I SPOKE TO MY MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE AND HAVE THE DEALERSHIP PICK IT UP.

THE OIL LEVEL IS WAY ABOVE THE FULL LINE ON DIP STICK. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE DEALER FOR THE FIRST OIL CHANGE NEXT WEEK. I HOPE THEY HAVE A REMEDY FOR THIS PROBLEM.

HI NHTSA MY COMPLAIN IS ABOUT MY HONDA CR-V 2018 I HAVE A ISSUE WITH OIL DILUTED I DO MY OIL CHANGE ABOUT 2000 MILES AGO WHEN THE CAR WAS 2500 MILE ALMOST NEW NOW MY CAR HAS 4153 MILES BUT TO DAY I CHECK MY OIL STICK AND I SEE IS OVERFILLED AND THE OIL IS VERY DARK ALSO AFTER DID THE OIL CHANGE BY THE HONDA DEALER I CHECK THE OIL AND WAS DARK AND I SAY HOW IS POSSIBLE IF I DO OIL CHANGE FEW MINUTES AGO, TODAY DECEMBER 8 2018 I WAS IN HONDA IF DANBURY DEALER AND THE GUYS THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT THESE ISSUE THEY ONLY SAY CAN DO THE OIL CHANGE I REALLY WORRY ABOUT IT

THE CAR BEGAN TO RUN ROUGH WHEN I WAS RETURNING FROM A LONG TRIP. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF, THEN BACK ON, EVERY ALARM WAS GOING OFF. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE GARAGE THAT HAD CHANGED MY OIL PUT THE WRONG OIL IN. THIS WAS A LIE ON THE DEALERSHIPS PART AS THEY HAD NO EVIDENCE TO PROVE THEIR ASSERTION. I BELIEVE I HAVE ONE OF THOSE CRVS WITH THE ENGINE PROBLEMS THAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT. MY HONDA HAS THE TURBO-4 CYLINDER MOTOR. I FOUND OUT ABOUT THESE ENGINE ISSUES OVER THE SUMMER BUT WHEN I MY CAR WAS TOWED TO HONDA, AFTER THANKSGIVING, THEY ACTED LIKE THE NEVER HEARD ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE FROM OIL AND FROM CRANKCASE WHEN OIL CAP IS REMOVED. SMELL OF GASOLINE VERY NOTICEABLE FROM OIL DIP STICK WHEN REMOVED. SMELL OF GASOLINE IS PRESENT IN OIL AND CRANKCASE WHETHER ENGINE IS COLD OR HOT. SMELL OF GASOLINE IN CABIN WHEN CAR IS RESTARTED WHEN ENGINE IS HOT

THE ENGINE HAS FUEL GETTING INTO THE OIL. THIS CAUSES THE PLUGS TO FOWL AND THE ENGINE TO LOSE POWER. THE CAR LEFT ME STRANDED ALONG THE ROAD THE FIRST TIME. DEALER TRIED TO FIX IT. IT IS NOW AT THE DEALER FOR THE SECOND TIME.

FUEL IS SOMEHOW MIXING WITH MY VEHICLES OIL. THIS IS CAUSING A FUEL SMELL IN THE VEHICLE AND RESULTS IN OVER FULL DIPSTICK READINGS. A RECENT SOFTWARE UPDATE FROM A HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT ONLY MADE THE ISSUE WORSE. I CAN START WITH A FRESH OIL CHANGE TODAY AND TWO DAYS LATER MY OIL WILL BE A QUART OVER FULL AND WILL SMELL LIKE FUEL.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 227. *TT
